All 28 minor round AFLW matches will be shown live via pay and free-to-air television. As part of the arrangement, Seven will endeavour to broadcast all Crows matches in South Australia on either its primary channel or 7Mate. More broadcast information.
The Crows will play at six different venues: TIO Stadium (Darwin), Thebarton Oval (SA), Whitten Oval (VIC), Fremantle Oval (WA), Norwood Oval (SA) and Olympic Park Oval (VIC).
Teams will play four 15-minute quarters plus time on.
Clubs will field 22 players, with 16 on the ground at any one time and six on the interchange bench. The AFL believes the 16-a-side format will result in a reduction in stoppages while increasing disposal efficiency and scoring.
Games will be played with a size four football, which is marginally smaller than the women’s football previously used. The AFL men play with a size five football.
Umpires will throw the ball up for all centre and field bounces.
The AFL will provide details of AFLW awards and trophies at the AFLW season launch in January.
